SCOTT CAM: Previously on The Block,

all teams got busy on their upstairs rooms...

All the pieces of the puzzle are coming together.

..including Darren 'Palm'er, Jimmy and Tam's palm tree...

Whoo! Oh, my goodness!

..set for the front yard.

I didn't expect it to be that big!

They were like, "Oh, (BLEEP)!" "What have we agreed to?"

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS) So much luck, these two.

Not Harry in House One.

He was fresh out of luck.

This whole bathroom's gotta come out.

Basically, gonna cost a fortune.

We gotta re-waterproof the whole bathroom.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

After eight weeks of losing, Sarah and George hit rock bottom.

GEORGE: We're the only ones who haven't really won anything.

We're just starting to get over it.

We try so hard and it's, like, we've always come up short.

Well, we won $10,000 from Catch.

We also won a, uh...

Eugh!

You start getting, like, ulcers and stuff.

At the opposite end of the happiness scale

is Sarah and George in House Two.

Despite giving it their all every week,

the NSW team haven't won a single challenge or even a room reveal,

and it's week eight.

Still proud of what we do.

You know, we haven't won nothing, we're still going, so...

MAN: What's the vibe on House Five winning?

Truly happy for them - like, good on them for winning -

The only thing that sucks is I just added up their winnings,

Oh, and you've built in your cabinetry there - lovely.

Yeah, built-in cabinetry.

So, that's really important.

That'll tip you over the edge.

earlier in the week.

Righto.

It's been a lot of work, moving that wall,

but all worth it.

We haven't done anything different yesterday,

bar put a few battens up and...yeah.

Alright. Thanks, mate. Thanks, Dan. Thanks, mate.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Daniel. Howdy, Dan. How you going?

Good, mate.

Now, just, um, with yesterday, upstairs,

run me through exactly what happened with...

Oh, well, I wasn't here. I was on a challenge yesterday.

So, did Keith do an inspection or...?

So, did Keith do an inspection or...?

Yeah, so, Keith was up there three or four times,

looking at it all day.

That's what I got informed last night when I got home.

So, I've just gotten off the phone to Keith.

Yep?

He said he was up there overseeing,

but he's never done a formal inspection whatsoever.

OK, rightio.

Um, that concerns me because I feel like I've been lied to.

Yep. Like, this is a mutual respect.

Yeah, lied to from who, Dan?

Well, you just said Keith ticked it off.

No, I didn't say Keith ticked it off.

I said Keith's been up there all day yesterday...

The exact words were, "Keith has inspected this already."

So, like, yeah, it's a two-way trust.

So, like, yeah, it's a two-way trust.

Oh, well, mate, there's no issue with trust with me with you,

and if you feel I've lied to you, well, mate, that's bull (BLEEP),

absolute bull (BLEEP).

Don't come into my house

and tell me we're trying to hide things and stuff like that.

It's all in there for everyone to have a look at.

(BLEEP)!

It's no point shaking your head, mate, like...that's how it is.

Yeah, that's fine, but you just called me a liar, mate.

Well...

I was away on a challenge all day yesterday.

I got told yesterday that Keith was up there three or four times.

Yeah?

And checking it over, but as for checking it off,

I don't know what a check-off is,

if that's what you've gotta do, or whatever, or what he's gotta do.

if that's what you've gotta do, or whatever, or what he's gotta do.

Communication on your end must be wrong.

Yeah, he said that I'd broken his trust

and all the other bull (BLEEP) that he had,

and I wasn't putting up with that.

It was just...that's crap.

There's no way that I've been trying to lie to you.

So, you can go and check whatever you want up there,

'cause everything's been done to those plans.

Well, I'm getting the engineer to come out.

Yeah, that's fine, mate. Sounds good.

He's coming after 1:00. See you after lunch. Thanks, Dan.

(BLEEP) bull (BLEEP), mate.

Call me a liar, you (BLEEP)!

I just didn't appreciate the way Dan went about it.

Simple as that.

SCOTT CAM: Back at the Block,

it's been a busy week for Daniel and Jade in House Three,

having the most rooms to complete.

Living area, guest bedroom,

and 25 metres of attic storage space.

So, a run-in with Foreman Dan is not a good start.

So, I was pretty annoyed with Dan, the way he went about it.

He wanted us to cease tools immediately

to get Dougie back out to have a look at it.

to get Dougie back out to have a look at it.

DAN: Daniel, got Doug, the engineer, now, mate.

G'day, Dan. How you going?

Yeah, good, mate.

Doug's sign-off is crucial

if the South Aussies have any chance

of revealing their attic space to the judges on Sunday.

On the way up, the thing that disturbed me

is I saw that you've put the beams above the joists.

Yep?

We're only getting half the nails into the supporting member.

OK.

I think it's gonna work OK for support on the joist side of it,

but on the beam side of it,

we've only got two or three nails either side.

So, should be four per bracket.

So, we're a bit light on. Yep.

We had four nails per bracket.

Dougie didn't think it'd be enough.

That's why I draw them up like that,

yeah, so that you set them in

so that you can actually get the brackets on properly,

but, yeah, I've never seen it done the way you've tried to do it.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Oversight on my behalf.

Just, you know, you're moving so quick,

you've just, yeah, lost a bit of the detail.

While Dan still has one problem to solve,

let's hope he's already solved the other -

let's hope he's already solved the other -

the dilemma of the third upstairs bedroom.

A few weeks ago,

Shelley wasn't convinced about Dan and Jade's decision

to add a third bedroom to their upstairs layout.

If this is going to be your next bedroom,

try to find another light source somehow.

Yes.

'Cause I think you'd find it

a little bit claustrophobic when you're in there.

And for that extra light source,

Daniel and Jade looked no further than House One.

Beautiful!

Harry had a spare window he no longer needed.

Very happy.

Used to call him Dirty Harry. Now he's Hero Harry.

(TENSE ELECTRONIC MUSIC)

With a bit of neighbourly help,

the South Aussies now have a third guest bedroom

with that extra window.

This bedroom will also feature a double bed,

side table, artwork on the wall,

and floor-to-ceiling Kinsman cabinetry with Champagne handles.

Dan and Jade are also completing a study-cum-living room

with a comfy couch, television,

and double-sided desk complete with cabinetry.

and double-sided desk complete with cabinetry.

The big reveal! OK!

What did you decide to do?

We decided to run with the third bedroom upstairs here.

It's come up really well. We're really happy.

It's still got a good-size wardrobe in there.

Fantastic! Still spacious enough.

And I know there's been a lot of contention,

"Should we do it? Shouldn't we do it?

"Who agrees? Who doesn't?"

I think it's a master stroke,

and the fact that you've made it fit

and not feel like you've compromised on any space,

yeah, all credit to you.

Yeah, it's come up really well. Well done.

Loved it.

Yeah, they loved our space. It's very exciting.

It was very controversial in the beginning,

and today she just said,

"Awesome! Great decision. Great choice.

"You know, you have a clear vision

"of where you're headed and who your buyer is."

And do you wanna... Yeah?

Yeah, well... Whoa, what is it? What's the secret?

Look, we thought you had way too much fun

with the sledgehammer yesterday, Scotty.

So, we wanted Shelley to have a little shot

with the sledgehammer today.

Yeah! Come on through.

What have we got here? Oh, hang on.

Just a little sledgehammer, Shelley.

Just a little sledgehammer, Shelley.

(LAUGHS) Yes.

Now, I got something for you right behind this bit of gyprock.

I'm gonna step back here a bit. Surprise.

Go for it. I'm left-handed.

I'm gonna have to go this way.

Just some shelving so that you can stack your suitcases, your ski gear.

This is, like, so important in a big family home...

Like, it's incredible.

Yeah, this is a game-changer,

MAN: So, Friday afternoon, and you're already behind at this point,

and then Dan calls you.

Talk me through what happened.

Yeah, well... Legit end of week.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

So, I find Dan in the room,

commenting on how clean my top floor was.

commenting on how clean my top floor was.

It's squeaky clean, it's that good.

Oh, OK. Don't you reckon?

Yeah. Squeaky.

(FLOOR CREAKS) Squeaky clean.

Squeaky clean.

That's not a squeak we want. No.

Right into the entrance of this rumpus room.

Every time you gotta walk in... (FLOOR CREAKS)

..gonna hear that.

There, 'cause this is... That's a truss, then.

100%.

I just don't...it was never happening earlier.

Oh, no, it was. It was.

I just thought you'd miss it. (FLOOR CREAKS)

I just thought you'd miss it. (FLOOR CREAKS)

So, you were happy to sell the house like that?

No, I literally only found out this arvo. I walked through it.

I actually found...it got worse and worse through the day

from Wednesday... sorry, from Thursday, yep.

So, you knew about it a day before Dan pointed it out to you?

Yeah, not really. Like, half a day.

You just said you found it on Thursday afternoon.

Yeah.

Dan told you about it on Friday afternoon.

Friday after... A whole day.

Yeah.

Was it Thursday afternoon you found it?

Was it Thursday afternoon you found it?

I can't remember. Oh, of course you can't.

DAN: Doesn't look like it's been glued, mate.

This first one looks like it's glued.

Yeah?

But then none of the others look like they're...

See, that's glued, that first one, but none of these are.

When you're doing flooring,

what are some of the key things to prevent squeaks?

Well, you have to have your substrate fixed to the...

..you glue it.

There's glue on it. There is glue on it.

There's glue on it. There is glue on it.

Luke seems pretty adamant there's glue on the floor.

Let's have a quick look back at the start of the week.

There's the top floor going down with glue...

(FLOOR CREAKS)

..but we definitely haven't seen the subfloor being glued down.

Do you know what I think's happened, Luke?

This is where the bathroom was originally meant to go.

Yeah?

And I'm pretty sure the YELLOWtongue under that was never glued

because we were allowing contestants to lift it up

because we were allowing contestants to lift it up

and I think Macca's forgotten to lift it up and glue it.

Oh, all this? The bottom sheet, yeah.

No, no, everything's glued. Sure?

100%, everything's glued.

But if it's glued...you should never have a squeak if it's glued.

I reckon it's the truss.

Something you gotta address, though, mate.

Yeah, yeah, course.

Done! Alright, mate.

OK, I'll sort it, mate. Always do.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

She'll be right. She's fine. No dramas.

Cup is overflowing on my end always,

Cup is overflowing on my end always,

but honestly, I know exactly what it is.

It got worse as I pulled screws out,

and I'll put longer screws in all along that truss,

and it'll be fixed.

If the screw isn't fixed, then...

..well, the floor would have to come up.

And then we wouldn't deliver a room.

So, fingers crossed, eh?
